PRAYER
Prayer is an important part of our relationship with God. Through prayer, we seek God’s guidance, bring our petitions to Him, intercede for others, praise Him, and thank Him. He gives us direction, counsel, comfort, encouragement, empowerment, and convicts us of unconfessed sin in our lives.
